Literally every job in the restaurant business is being performed by our friends from south of the border, from hosing down the sidewalks at 6 a.m. to cutting, paring, prepping and frying, and so on. Something we don't pause much to think about is that frankly, without this army of workers the restaurant industry would come to a crashing halt. Next time you're sipping your latte at Union Square, have a look at who is picking up those huge orders of fruits and vegetables from the Greenmarket. Then maybe pause to reflect that prices are low because their wages are low.
